Laura C.

Grammar Tutor

Andover,
MA01810

Grammar is the glue that holds sentences together. When used properly, it fades into the background and lets words shine through. When used improperly or avoided all together, it bogs down sentences and makes them hard to understand.
I will be happy to explain 10 important rules for comma usage and how to use semicolons and colons properly. I can explain the difference between a sentence fragment (dependent clause) and a complete sentence (independent clause). I can also diagnose and explain a number of common grammatical errors: lack of noun-verb agreement, lack of parallelism, misplaced mo

Enthusiastic Explainer: Physics & Math

Cutting out words to reveal the skeletal structure of a sentence is often the quickest and surest way to correct grammar. When the excess is stripped away, bad grammar that's left will sound wrong.
My approach to this subject is guided by the Common Core standard adopted by most states (including all of New England) several years ago.

Mary - Teacher/Tutor

As an English major and attorney, I work with writing all the time. In that regard, I have great respect and appreciation for the English language; I work hard with my students to infuse that very same passion. Writing well presents an image that speaks positively. In the alternative, writing poorly has the exact opposite effect. I help my students to buy into this concept so they will take the appropriate care to present themselves well in writing and understand and respect the language. Having spent twenty years with little more than words and some ingenuity to influence judges and juries
